The far right

Ahhhh it's just a good sound bite!

Stopped at the communists scum .. might listen later but you'd swear we are back at the McCarthy years and Ireland is over run with non Irish!

Does he even know the actual figures?

You done better than me, I never made it that far! Its hard to take someone serious when they use phrases like "being wiped out".

I always favour free speech - even when the person saying what they are saying is not agreeable. It is always good to delve into their thoughts and give them a listen. They will either cement your present views or there might be a comment that throws a spanner in you beliefs - a I never really looked at it that way moment.

Over the course of the Gaza conflict - I have read and watched a lot of Douglas Murray stuff. It's hard stuff to watch/read (especially with his pompous know all demeanour), but it gives an insight into how the propaganda and mind control of the masses work. I'm sure there are a minority of Israeli's that are victims in their own right either born into or carolled into becoming settlers and not knowing what they really were getting into.

In relation to Palestine we strangely look at Ursula Von Der Leyen as sort of the enemy, but when it comes to her dealing with home affairs and Europe's influence on Ireland we ignore or turn a blind eye.

The last paragraph doesn't make sense... She isn't some sort of enemy in relation to Palestine, she is front and centre. Her views are absolutely dispicable but not surprising for someone with influence going against the majority.
Re Europe, who exactly turns a blind eye? Certain parts of being in the EU can be questioned, but on the whole being part of it far out weighs going it alone that's for sure
Don't think I've ever thrown a punch outside of a sports field, but I'd never tire of punching that wee hoor in the bridge of the nose

Sorry, I understated her - Agreed She is front and center the enemy of Palestine.

The direction of the EU has to be questioned. What started off as a common market (EEC) is now a dictatorship from non elected bureaucrats.

Who wasn't elected?

Ursula Von Der Leyen for one. Civil servants who are not elected but are hugely involved in proposing and implementing EU laws and policies. Commissioners are nominated by national governments and approved by the European Parliament.

She's elected by MEPs who you voted for. There's nothing to really see here.

Was she originally elected by the people to the EU?

Americas president isn't elected by the people either. Its a representative democracy. I really don't see the issue. You have a vote when you elect an MEP. They represent your interests including the selection of head of the EC.

Yeah, next you'll be calling that democracy.

Far Right Clergy - What next?

Ireland is 'crammed': Priest says non-Christian migrants shouldn't enter country

[Rossfan]

Not much Christianity in that lad.

[Tony Baloney]

Not much Christianity in that lad.

And from an area which would have had a mass exodus to America in the 1840s.

[Rossfan]

And everywhere else almost to the present day.

Fr Kilcoyne has form when it comes to bizarre remarks.

He complained about the dig of the Tuam babies and at time said there was an "outrageous myth" that children at the institution had "met an untimely end through bad action". He described the nuns who ran the home as "outstanding" and said he did not believe there was any "bad action".

Sounds an ideal character to provide moral and spiritual guidance.

Oh yeah - the Famine. Or what we were told in our text books.

Gas to see the Irish Flag comfortably waving with Union Jacks, The Welsh Dragon, Scotland's Cross of St. Andrew and England's Saint George Cross in London's anti-immigration march today. How times change.

I won't. Regrettably civil war is on the way in most European Countries. And if not that war in Europe.
